DETROIT (AP) — State officials are investigating a $2,000 gift to former Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick from a Chicago pastor.

Prisons spokesman Russ Marlan said Kilpatrick is required to reports gifts to his parole officer but made no mention of the December cash. WJBK-TV2 showed video of Kilpatrick counting cash from the wire transfer at a Walmart store in Macomb County. Kilpatrick called it a "trivial" matter Tuesday.

Kilpatrick is on parole four years after he was convicted of obstruction of justice in a Wayne County court. He still owes $800,000 in restitution to the city of Detroit and is on trial on federal corruption charges.

The $2,000 came from Chicago's New Beginnings Church. The Rev. Corey Brooks said Kilpatrick was pleading for help.
